A lower tier [similar to canal street/dhgate] 090 replica which 21J movement [not sure about the movement]
To answer your question, it doesn't worth a substantial amount

That's right. This is an attempt to make a PAM090 in a 1950 case, with a seagull decorated as P.9000, which is not true for either the dial or the functions, and also uses a button to set the date, which is not the case with any similar models. Regarding the cost, I agree with the opinion that it is simply symbolic.

Depends on how much you paid for it, it's not as horrific as some posted on here with a moonphase dial and tourbillion window

Honestly if you didnt pay more than $120 it's still ok. Fun watch to have. Noone will know unless you're bringing it to watch events lol.
I pay too much 
, i am idiot , but I paid via paypal, I can start dispute and ask for a refund because I was scammed

I wouldn't, you bought a counterfeit watch using PayPal, it's not like Amazon - PayPal won't refund you, the seller sold you a Panerai rep and made a profit from your inexperience. Just chalk it up to being new to the rep game and move on. Read up on here and if you want to buy anything buy from a TD on here. Meanwhile put a nice leather strap on that and it will look a whole lot better.I pay too much
If he actually got scammed for a larger amount by a random dude on the internet, a dispute on PayPal would be reasonable, no? Agree with everything else you’re saying though. Stick to TDs in the future, OP.

Bottom line, if it was advertised as Gen then yes you should dispute but if you knowingly bought rep… let it go… lesson learned… when knowingly buying illegal counterfeit items its best to take your lumps

All of you most likely are speaking about working power reserve INDICATOR
As far as I know, the Seagull movement on this watch cannot have working INDICATOR. The indicator included is just a decorative item and it will not change its position.
Of course thare are some gens with working power reserve indicator.
Regarding reps, as far as I know only Davidsen made, many time ago, reps with a Soprod movement with working power reserve indicator. I bought from him 10 years ago a PAM 028 that cost me a small fortune. I was one of the last units with Soprod manufactured by Davidsen.

Yes @R33xxo I have the same watch as yours and my power reserve indicator works also. I bought mine on originally on a stainless bracelet from Egypt around ten years ago and it was one of my very first reps. I know it's not a super 1:1 rep but I've grown quite fond of it as it reminds me of starting out on this hobby.
I do hope you can see past it's flaws just as I have, and just enjoy it as a watch, and a reminder of your journey - hopefully one of many as you gain more knowledge on reps and add more to your collection.
I have no need for five Pam's plus all the other gens and reps that I wear in rotation, but this hobby is never about being practical!
